very informative, even starting a little sooner - from your post here:

http://www.pupman.com/listarchives/2002/July/msg00385.html

and from this thread it can be clearly seen, that some people have
never learned what did you tell them, no matter how long or how many
other people told the same to them.
it seems than you guys have had much more fun in this millennium
(comparing with previous one), so i need read several times faster
than i do now. have you ever think about some more or less restricted
form of this list, such that where guys like me can`t post, only read?
coz when guy like me are tryin to read archives, he quickly finds that
starting from some point about 95% of all posts had no new information
for him, and even just skipping those posts can take a year or two of
his life (we all have other things to do such as job and etc).

then how about "folded resonator" concept? can`t find reference right
now, but will do it if needed.

"Resonance frequency and V/I profile calculations are made by using
equations 6.3 and 6.4 from pn2511, starting with the capacitance and
inductance matrices obtained above."

6.3  dV(x)/dx= omega * integral (0-h) [ M(x,y) * I(y)dy ]

when i look into javascript code of "compute_F()" i see that you
compute two-dimensional array M[n][m], so you can calculate primary
induced voltage profile separately from self induced one, but when
you compute voltage profile in "function xx_construct_A()", i see
this:

// Insert entries for equ 6.3
for( var n=1; n<=N; n++)
{
   A[n][n] -= 1;
   if( n > 1) A[n][n-1] += 1;

   for( var m=1; m<=N; m++)
      xx_enter_Icoeff( N, A[n], m, omega * M[n-1][m-1]);
}

so at the end you don`t compute two profiles separately, but compute
single "average" value of sec voltage instead?
